The name of this German automobile manufacturer is Steinwinter. When you see its logo, you will almost think it is a Ferrari. However, Ferrari never seems to worry about this problem for many reasons:
For example, Steinwinter and Ferrari have never been in a market segment;
Another example is the origin between these two brands;
Another example is related to the origin of Ferrari logo. In short, there are different opinions but there is no "official announcement".
Steinwinter is famous for transforming Fiat cars, and is also pursuing tangible economic benefits, such as Fiat 500 or Fiat 126. For this kind of car called "Little Mouse", Steinwinter thinks that even the displacement of 500cc is a bit too much, and 250cc can be called economy.
Of course, 250cc is also a bit "crazy". Steinwinter also built a car with a 50cc engine, Junior? No matter how old you are, whether you have a driver's license or not, whether you drink or not, you can drive. Isn't this China's "old scooter"? Steinwinter was the originator.
Of course, Steinwinter also has some more "sporty" models. For example, a beach off-road vehicle, built with a 500cc engine of Fiat 126, got 26 horsepower. To be honest, this looks really good.
Steinwinter also built a real "hard-core" model, which is the escort trailer shown in 1983. This car has a revolutionary design, but it was not mass-produced in the end. I believe many people have seen or heard of this truck, right?
Steinwinter is a very creative automobile manufacturer, and its logo is really not a "cottage". It stands to reason that this logo with a similarity of 99% can't be ignored by Ferrari in the automobile industry, but it seems that there is really no way. As for the reason:
Some people think that Ferrari's logo comes from the "prancing horse" on the fighter plane of Italian ace pilot Francisco Baraka during World War I, while yellow comes from the relevant color of Modena, Italy. However, some people say that the logos of Ferrari, Porsche and Steinwinter are all inspired by the logo of Stuttgart.
On the other hand, according to the exhibition of Porsche Museum, Stuttgart owns all the rights of "black horse with yellow background", so any automobile manufacturer needs authorization to use it.
There is also a view with high credibility. The relationship between Steinwinter and Fiat is self-evident. 1969 is the time when Fiat bought 50% of Ferrari shares, so it is more likely to be authorized to use it.
It is precisely because Steinwinter and Ferrari's logos are so similar that there seems to be no dispute between them, and there is no real "official announcement", which leads to different opinions. History itself is full of interesting elements, so is the automobile industry. If we don't pay attention to these "cold knowledge", we really don't know that Ferrari actually has a "twin brother".
